Reynoldsburg, Ohio

REYNOLDSBURG, OHIO nation. Today, more people are starting to call Reynoldsburg home, as many young families and professionals are relocating there. After decades of being known as a bedroom community, now, thanks to its continued development, the city stands independently as a locale to live and work. With a 10-minute drive time to the international airport and downtown Columbus within a 20-minute drive, young professionals with the median age of 35, as well as the senior community, take advantage of the city’s new development projects and growing job offerings. Reynoldsburg is in high demand, with a fast- moving housing market that poses a serious issue for the city council. Short supply creates an obstacle to meet the demand and remain diverse. While facing the challenge of deciding how to add supply sustainably without overburdening infrastructure, the city harkens back to its core values. It takes on large housing development projects necessary to welcome new neighbors. These projects include the Eastwood Project being built and designed by the Ciminello Development Corporation. A mix of apartments, NYC brownstone-style town homes, and senior living units ranging from $300,000- 600,000 will be set alongside a $4 million community center with an outdoor pool, trails, and a wooded park. The property’s seniors will live in convenience with closer lots and smaller yards as they build their own community in the brick- paved communal courtyard. Fun is a priority with the option to add an outdoor pool or kitchen with a pizza oven to their home. Their younger neighbors will be able to move into the traditional Boulevard-type modern homes. The property on the east side of Reynoldsburg recently completed the annexation process, and the developer has submitted planning commission documents in anticipation to begin construction in the fall.
